Your ADHD Life Coach Training Journey with the IACTCenter

Choosing a Coach Training Program Shouldn't be Confusing...

Which is why here at the IACTCenter we take out the "crazy" by streamlining your training into one straightforward comprehensive curriculum complete with everything you will need to become a Certified ADHD Life Coach (CALC).

This is exactly what will happen in your training at the IACTCenter:

Your first six-months at the IACTCenter is focused on providing you a thorough ADHD Life Coach curriculum including an advanced knowledge of ADHD, introduction and interaction with the tools, exercises and strategies you will use in your ADHD Life Coaching practice, and the opportunity to observe, practice and engage in real life coaching during our twice a month Coaching Labs.

The straightforward curriculum at the IACTCenter will lead you in 3 steps to graduation and certification as an ADHD Life Coach (CALC).

Classes are twice a week on Mondays and Wednesdays for 90 minutes for a total of 77 continuing coach education (CCEs). Trust us, 77 CCEs is a good number 🙂 We connect virtually in our Global Classroom by phone using a teleclass format.

Running concurrently with the coach training program is the 30 hours of Business Building Curriculum you get as part of your training. From day one you get straightforward answers to creating your coaching business. Monthly on the third Tuesday of the month we meet live on our Global Conference call to answer any questions you have about business building, and quarterly we provide virtual retreats to help teach you step-by-step critical business systems that work!

But it doesn't stop there. Once you have completed the initial in class portion of your training, prepared with the information, systems and skills needed to be an exceptional ADHD Life Coach, we continue to partner and support you for the remainder of a calendar year as you fine tune your coaching skills, accrue coaching practice hours and put the final pieces of your coaching business into place.

During this second half of your training you continue to be an important part of our IACTCenter community and we are with you step-by-step as you fine tune your coaching skills in the twice a month Coaching Labs. The Coaching Labs provide a rich learning environment with opportunities to coach, be coached, observe live coaching and be involved with Coaching Case Studies. And, as you are putting the final pieces in place for your coaching practice, you will benefit from the ongoing monthly business building calls and virtual retreats.

Finally, something only the IACTCenter provides as part of your tuition is five hours of required mentor coaching. In other programs this required mentoring for certification is an additional hidden expense ranging anywhere from $500-$1000. We at the IACTCenter feel so strongly in our program that we include this one-on-one mentoring for you at no additional cost.

And...during your training, we are with you every step of the way for an entire year... from even before your first class as you get prepared for your training...until you have completed the steps to Graduation and are holding your certificate as a Certified ADHD Life Coach (CALC).

How the International ADHD Coach Training Center is Setting a New Standard

Having had the advantage of learning from previous training programs about what works and what doesn't when preparing ADHD Life Coaches to confidently coach persons with ADHD, the IACTCenter has been able to raise the bar and provide their students with an advanced training program.

Here are a few characteristics that set the IACTCenter ahead of the rest:

Focus on a Holistic Approach

At the IACTCenter we recognize that people are more than just their ADHD. Which is why our training program is the only one to prepare you to be an “ADHD Life Coach,” complete with the skills to confidently coach people in areas of their ADHD challenges AND also to be skilled in coaching the whole person, beyond their ADHD. The IACTCenter uniquely takes a holistic approach to ADHD Life Coaching, focusing on coaching the whole person, not just their ADHD. Our graduates are prepared to coach all aspects of their clients’ lives with an expertise on the unique obstacles of the ADHD experience. We include training on the impact of culture, family dynamics, environment, ADHD treatment, emotions and ADHD, leveraging strengths and the importance of learning differences with our clients and the ADHD coaching process.

Training that Honors Multiple Adult Learning Styles

We know that learning to be an ADHD Life Coach is different than actually being a coach and that people learn differently. We therefore use the most up-to-date webinar interactive technology in our Global Classroom, that let’s you see, not just hear your instructors and other students. Our students from around the world can connect, see and talk to one another virtually. We value your life experience, actively engage you to share them and enhance your learning with handouts, templates and notes pages you can print out for your own use.

Ongoing Community of Support

Creating a lasting community experience beyond the classroom is important to us here at the IACTCenter. At the IACTCenter there is no need to “assign” students to learning partners as we have found our students naturally seek out opportunities to practice and support one another, applying what they are learning and strengthening their skills. To enhance this, we provide multiple opportunities to connect with your fellow classmates, including all day retreats, twice a month coaching workshops, live Q & A calls, private Facebook pages, and welcoming expert coaching professionals from outside our school to share their experiences for your benefit.

Certification as an ADHD Life Coach (CALC)

Our comprehensive, International Coach Federation (ICF) approved training program prepares you as both a Life Coach and ADHD Coach, providing you a bigger picture of your clients’ needs and seamlessly coach them in multiple areas.

30+ Hours of Dedicated Business Building Training Included

Only at the IACTCenter will you get over 30 hours of dedicated teaching about the business of ADHD Life Coaching INCLUDED in your tuition and taught by real life coaches with real life successful, profitable practices. We know it takes more then being a certified coach to be able to continue to meet the needs of your clients. In addition, you need the business experience we give you at the IACTCenter so you don’t have to reinvent the wheel and can create a solid coaching practice and make a living while making a difference for many years to come. During your once a month Business Q & A live phone calls you will get answers to essential business building questions and during the quarterly all day virtual business building retreats you will gain the understanding and skills you need to build a thriving coaching practice that serves the exact type of clients you want to work with. The virtual business building trainings include yearly planning retreats, courses on how to get clients, information on what to charge, content creation of your website landing page, tools, templates and systems simply given to you so you don’t have to reinvent the wheel.

No Hidden Costs - 5 Hours of Mentoring Included in Your Tuition

A requirement of all approved ADHD coach training programs is that graduates have received mentoring in addition to the training curriculum. Because we do not want you to discover this hidden expense averaging anywhere from $500-$1000 dollars after registering, here at the IACTCenter we include 5 hours of one-on-one coach mentoring in your tuition.

Access to Actual Clients Looking for a Coach

The IACTCenter’s “Coach Referral Network” is a win-win-win. As a student at the IACTCenter you will gain confidence in your coaching when you get to coach with actual clients thrilled to have the opportunity to coach with our students. Honoring our clients’ unique needs, the Coach Referral Network matches clients looking for a coach with coaching students ready to work with clients…win-win-win!

Coaching Labs

Just like in high school science class where the labs let you experiment with concepts you were learning, here at the IACTCenter we come together twice a month for 90 minutes to play and experiment in our coaching labs. The Coaching Labs bring students of all levels together to practice their coaching in a community of support. Your participation in the twice a month Coaching Labs starts at the very beginning of your training. In the labs you can fine tune your skills, observe coaching by other students, ask questions and receive detailed feedback on coaching from our expert faculty members.

NOTE: Our next semester starts January 2018 with a limited enrollment of 12 students. Applicants are already signing up.

A Note from Laurie Dupar, Founder of IACTCenter:

I can’t tell you how excited I am that you’re considering becoming a member of the IACTCenter!

I remember what it was like to be in your shoes, to know coaching was what I wanted to do and eager to get started right away! I want to welcome you into our community.

If you are like me, you never planned to become an ADHD Coach, but once I found out about this amazing profession, becoming an ADHD Coach was the best decision I’ve ever made.

Which is why I am so excited to have created the International ADHD Coach Training Center.

There’s so much that makes the IACTCenter different than other coaching programs, but the main thing that sets us apart is our core mission. We want to provide a premiere global ADHD Coaching training program so that everyone who wants to can work with an ADHD Coach…and oh yeah, we also want our students to have a little bit of fun along the way.

Just so you know, our faculty isn’t here to prove how capable we are — our results speak for themselves. We’re here to show how capable you are, by teaching you the skills and sharing with you the tools you need to become an excellent ADHD Coach and build your ADHD Coaching business.

If you’re still on the fence about whether or not the IACTCenter is right for you, let’s hop on the phone and talk about it!

I know what a big decision this is for you, and I’m here to answer any questions you have and happy to give you all the details you could possibly want on the program.

And in case you’re worrying…this call isn’t designed to pressure you to sign up.

That’s not my style, plus I don’t want anyone in the class who isn’t 100% all-in!

It’s just an opportunity for you to get all the facts so you can make a confident, informed decision that’s right for you.

Part of the coaching process is learning to know yourself, understand what you need, and map out the steps to achieve your goals. I want to help you map out those steps…and see for yourself how the IACTCenter can be part of your journey.
